I am not an expert of the EDM scene but I feel like it would have killed the vibe a little if instead of showing restraint the DJ straight up started jacking off.
🔥🚨LATEST: This DJ is going viral due to his amazing self restraint as he focused on the music and ignored the demonic distractions behind him.

I was just Thinking… im old enough to remember that the 1980s drug game almost destroyed Sports as we know it .. as with the Black Community in the USA and others …. Ironically RAP and HipHop Attacked it vehemently. Aggressively. The corporations bought Rap and embraced it in the 1990s . Ironic Aint this some sht ?

It was better when we knew very little about rappers being cucks and fuckboys. All we had to judge was the music.

He hopped in the studio and said “some tall Israeli is running this rap shit.” In 2004 back when they really would’ve put a plunger in your ass for talking like that. That man overachieved in the entertainment industry when you think about it.
Man, Mos Def shoulda had a much better music career

feel like it’s the perfect cover to convey that you’re heartbroken, your homies are all going schizophrenic, the 60s are over, and you’re crying on the beach in Malibu on a lot of acid, 10/10 album, only student demonstration time feels out of place and that song also rules
Can any beach boys expert tell me why the fuck they chose this scary ass album cover pls

It’s time for a new powerhouse record label in west coast hip-hop too. One where women aren’t being raped and beat, preferably.

🧵Eric "Vietnam" Sadler wasn't just "another producer." ❌ He was the sonic architect, tech guru, and key multi-instrumentist of The Bomb Squad. 🧠🎛️ Along with Hank, Keith Shocklee, and Chuck D, he built that "wall of noise" that changed hip hop forever. 👇 While others were just rapping, he programmed drum machines with surgical precision. He sampled like no one else and played bass, guitar, and drums in the sessions. His footprint is on classics by Public Enemy, Ice Cube, and Slick Rick. 🎸⚡ And the list goes on! He also left his mark with LL Cool J and Leaders of the New School. After the explosion of the Golden Era, Vietnam Sadler stepped away from the mainstream. He spent more than 30 years creating in silence, without interviews or nostalgia tours. 🤫🦅

The world lost Anthony Bourdain 8 years ago today. I love this quote from him.

No, but really, look at this cocky teenage eagle coming to destroy your fragile baseball with a look. I love this image so much.
